I would like to re-open this issue now, much has changed since the last
comment.
glibc has a timezone database parser. It only makes perfect sense to reuse the
functionality and provide extra functions for converting times from any
timezone to UTC and back in a useful and thread-safe manner. Many modern
application require this functionality.
